      <p>The following change applies only to applications using the
Berkeley DB Concurrent Data Store product.  If your application is not using that product,
you can ignore this change.</p>
      <p>Historically, the <a href="../api_reference/C/dbcursor.html" class="olink">DB-&gt;cursor()</a> method took the DB_RMW flag to indicate
that the created cursor would be used for write operations on the
database.  This flag has been renamed to the <code class="literal">DB_WRITECURSOR</code>
flag.</p>
      <p>The application should be searched for any occurrences of DB_RMW. For
each of these, any that are arguments to the <a href="../api_reference/C/dbcursor.html" class="olink">DB-&gt;cursor()</a> function
should be changed to pass in the <code class="literal">DB_WRITECURSOR</code> flag instead.</p>
